Just plain AWESOME!!

Rating: 8/10 (17 July 2013)

I saw this movie in IMAX 3D and let me just say, that's the way you need to see it! First and foremost, the reason I knocked it down to 8/10 is because the plot, to me, was pretty weak/standard. I mean, comon.... they just arbitrarily throw in the whole, "they jump planet to planet......" you can fill in the rest, it's cheesy. Also, the emotional story they weaved in was kind of weak in my opinion. I found myself saying, "ok that's nice, now lets get back to the action!" every time they tried to build the emotional side of things. I guess it's necessary for some people, not me.
Now the good stuff.
The attention to detail in the Jaegers is amazing! The effects were second to none and the detail in the Kaijus was also fantastic! The battle sequences..... oh my god.... just plain awesome! Luckily there were only a few people in the theater since I saw it on the earliest showing of the day because I found myself saying out loud, "GET SOME" a few times. I couldn't resist! This movie was just flat out amazing! I would strongly recommend this movie if you want some great action sequences and a fairly high octane movie. If you're looking for a in depth plot/storyline and a deep seeded love story, steer clear since these things seem like afterthoughts so your girlfriend or wife don't completely hate the movie.
